متن کاملComparison of second-derivative spectrophotometry and HPLC for determination of amygdalin in wild apricot kernels
Amygdalin is a cyanogenic glucoside found in apricot kernels. To facilitate the exploitation and use of wild apricot resources, it is necessary to be able to rapidly and efficiently determine the amygdalin levels within their kernels. To do so, this paper compares two methods, one based on second-derivative UV spectrophotometry and the other on highperformance reversed-phase liquid chromatograp...
متن کاملAntioxidant and antimicrobial activities of bitter and sweet apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernels.
The present study describes the in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of methanol and water extracts of sweet and bitter apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) kernels. The antioxidant properties of apricot kernels were evaluated by determining radical scavenging power, lipid peroxidation inhibition activity and total phenol content measured with a DPPH test, the thiocyanate method and the Fol...
متن کاملReduction of Aflatoxins in Apricot Kernels by Electronic and Manual Color Sorting
The efficacy of color sorting on reducing aflatoxin levels in shelled apricot kernels was assessed. Naturally-contaminated kernels were submitted to an electronic optical sorter or blanched, peeled, and manually sorted to visually identify and sort discolored kernels (dark and spotted) from healthy ones. The samples obtained from the two sorting approaches were ground, homogenized, and analysed...
